They've done that already. I've actually gotten banned twice because their AI tool thought I was harassing a streamer. Both reversed almost immediately after an appeal. Guess those appeals may no longer have people responding to them...
This is why I'm here. Reddit did the same shit right after their IPO went public. When I declined their early invitation to buy IPO, the next day my account got banned for 3 days.
The first one was a post where a guy in Cleveland had his motorbike stolen. I live in Cleveland. And this guy had pictures of the guy who stole his bike. He looked kind of like the guy who stole my bicycle back in the late 80s when I was a kid. I said "Hey, maybe this guys the son of the guy who stole MY bike 30+ years ago! Keeping the business in the family."
BANNED 3 DAYS for "harrassment of reddit user". Who am I harassing? The guy who stole my bike 30 years ago? The guy who stole the motor bike a few months ago? We have zero indication that either of them are on reddit at all, much less in this thread.
Similiar situations like this all happened 2 more times, and on the 3rd time, perma-ban sitewide.
It's a 10+ year old reddit account, with like a billion karma because I don't do drugs. I don't drink much, I don't smoke, I don't have hobbies, I only have one addiction and it's reddit.
And each appeal came back less than a day later and claimed it was reviewed by a human, and agreed upon by a human.
I didn't appeal the last one, because I'm thinking if I appeal that, and lose, I lose the account. But even though they claim the other 2 times were reviewed by humans, I don't think they were.
And even still. If they review the appeal, and reverse it, how long until ANOTHER bot does the same thing, and permabans me again?
It really feels like I lost that account. 2022 I was even in the top 1% of comment posters. Instead of making another account I'm just going to switch to Lemmy and help this platform grow instead. Reddit just loses a user that probably posts literally every hour, usually several times an hour. Just whenever I'm bored, I'll post a comment on something engaging in conversation.
Now I do that here, as I attempt to figure out how to use Lemmy.
Fuck ban-happy Reddit and its IPO shenanigans. That place is a dumpster fire that I wouldn’t piss on to put out.
Welcome to Lemmy. It might not be perfect, But At Least We Aren’t Reddit (TM)

BALWAR - Thus Sunday at the convention center!
Just appeal to another AI - two of them can't be wrong at the same time, I'm sure of it!
